Artist CHERRY58L Left Handed Hollow Body Electric Guitar

Artist CHERRY58L Left Handed Hollow Body Electric Guitar
This classic style of guitar has existed in many forms since it was first released in 1958. It came to be loved by Rock 'n Roll, Jazz and Blues guitarists and is a classic of those genres. Left Handed version. Maple body and neck, eco rosewood fretboard.

Classic Guitar
Legendary names like BB King, Freddie King, John McLaughlin, Larry Carlton, Jorma Kaukonen, Eric Clapton, and Elvin Bishop are among the multitude of players who have loved the diverse tones that this type of instrument offers. Now it's your turn! The Artist Cherry58 offers a perfect entry-level guitar for those wishing to begin their journey into the world of blues and Jazz. With the typical set-neck, this guitar is truly a ""blues machine"". Like the body, the neck is constructed of maple on an eco-friendly Eco Rosewood fretboard. This wood is a fine substitute for rosewood which is now considered a highly endangered species and as a result is rarely if ever used in general guitar building these days. The 22 frets show off the 'Dot' shaped plastic inlays and when you add to the comfortable ""C"" shape neck the standard tune-o-Matic bridge and stop-bar tailpiece, you have a guitar that will not only feel great under your fingers but one that will sustain forever.

Top Hardware
The Cherry58 sports chrome-covered Humbuckers with Alnico V magnets which means that you have the option of the warm throaty tones of the neck pickup or the biting clean sounds of the bridge pickup. When you set your toggle switch in between neck and bridge pickup you get that wonderful almost out of phase sound which confirms that this is an extremely versatile guitar that will be very responsive under your fingers. You will be able to put a stamp on all those great blues solos and wail like the greats or you could darken the tone to suit the ""cool"" of any dingy little jazz club.

Perfect for Beginners
It has a Low String Action (all our guitars are set-up at the factory for the optimum beginner playing level). String action is the measurement from the top of the 12th fret to the bottom of the string. This is very important because a guitar with a high action is hard to play, a guitar with too low an action will buzz and sound bad. Artist Guitars are set up at the factory for the optimum level for a beginner. This guitar also has die-cast Machine Heads - This means your guitar will tune quicker, be more stable, and stay in tune longer.
